Lawmakers Request Justice Department Records on Pretti and Good Killings

Congress is increasing scrutiny over the Border Patrol killing of Alex Pretti in Minneapolis, prompting House Democrats to request Justice Department records regarding the incident and the prior shooting of Renee Nicole Good. The Democrats accuse the Trump administration of obstructing investigations and failing to adequately address Good’s death, which included unusual decisions by federal prosecutors. Meanwhile, both the FBI and Minnesota state authorities face challenges in accessing evidence for these cases. Additional congressional inquiries are underway, with calls for civil rights investigations and agency testimonies amid growing concerns from both parties.
